  1. It was a direct swap out, the only thing that changed were the mids. At first the evils did not sound as good as the carbons, but keep in mind the carbons have about 4 years of play time so they were in their sweet point. The more play time I got on the evils the better they started to sound. With that being said, I recently swapped the carbons back in and could not really tell the difference with my ear. Is one better than the other? I would say they are on a level playing field in the proper install. As you can tell my doors are pretty well dampened and sound dead so if there was a significant sound difference I would have noticed it right away. Also keep in mind the SSA amp was used for this test because I wanted to see if I could hear a difference using this amp. I am currently beating the evil mids pretty damn hard and loving them as much as I did the carbons.
  2. Alright Bitches !!! We all know why we are here. AUDIO UPGRADES !!! Trying my best guys. Please remember, nothing is set in stone and I'm constantly testing and tuning. Front stage upgrades. This will be eventually a 2 way active front stage 6.5" driver and tweet setup. For now, it's passive. So according to the good ole measuring tape, it all measures out so that I can time align mid and tweet together. Thank God !!! I know guys, that's not on axis or off axis. Those tweets are on adjustable pedestals and THIS is where the Stage and image sounds best to me. No "tricking or notch EQ'ing" here. Left and Right separation seems to be Dead on Balls Accurate as is. After a couple of SQ comps, I think the A-pillars will be ready for Fiberglass. As for the doors. Nice baffle with a 6.5" driver for midbass. Deadning and MLV ??? As soon as I can afford it guys. Unfortunately, working on a very tight (closer to none at the moment) budget. What can I say, Shit Happens.
  3. Badass M5. 702 hp. . Going to be doing some more performance upgrades to it soon
  4. Someone asking about subs ??? This is still a thought process but I did mock up something to get ideas. Text book or not, I thing it's going in the right direction. I'm just glad it can be stealthy and out of the way because after all, it is a work truck. Here we Go. A pair of 25+ year old tens in a mock up box that don't seem large enough for a pair of 8" drivers. I didn't think it would work either until I started working with the time alignment. Like I said, just threw this together. So don't bash me up too bad. it's a work in progress. This will be pulled out for upgrades as soon as I can get Deadning material. I have to Delay (time Align) this Damn thing almost 7 feet for it to sound like the bass response was coming from the dash !!! But then again, the enclosure is NOT finished by no means, does not have the correct drivers (using the old ones to test and tune not to damage my new ones), And WAY underpowered until I can build my battery bank and amplifier rack upgrades. This is NOT a ground pounder and will never will be so I'm not looking for anything close to a 150 db. So I think this setup is going in the right direction for me. Shouldn't be long before I start making trim panels and deciding to paint, cover, or whatever we do to it after the test and tune is done. Well, that's all for now guys !!! Hope you enjoy. May the Force be with you !!!!
  5. Guys, this Dash Mat has got to be one of my BEST purchases for this vehicle. I recommend to all if applicable !!! Makes the Sound, Stage, and Image AMAZING. You can literally tell the difference with this thing on and off !!! A cheap must have for any Audiophile !!! As for the Smiling Thingy on the mirror ??? Its a dad thing. If you are a father, you will understand.
  6. Small Updates. Nothing special, I mean come on, it's just an ole work truck. Head Lights !!! You know me, I'm HID / Projector all the way homies !!! What a Difference !!! Special thanks goes out to Mike Mastin with Hyper Lights for these amazing creatures !!! BTY, these are custom built and retrofitted.
